Gillingham have started the season in fine style, has the excellent start come as a surprise to fans?

Yes it has, most Gillingham fans at the start of the season were optimistic that we could build on last season’s 12th place finish in League One.

I thought we had enough in the squad to secure a top ten finish and maybe push for a play-off spot but to be top of the table after seventeen games is beyond anything we could of imagined at the start of the season.

What has been the main ingredient behind your success this season so far?

Justin Edinburgh - Edinburgh has really got that bit more out of the players and that extra 10 per cent is probably why Gillingham are doing so well in League One this season.

The Gills have used a number of different systems throughout the season which gives them flexibly when they need to change the way we play during the game. Whether we can hang on to Justin Edinburgh when bigger clubs come calling, we will have to wait and see.

Who are the main threats in the team and who should we look out for?

Bradley Dack - The 21-year-old attacking midfielder is thriving in the No.10 role with eight goals in 21 matches this season, but it isn’t just his goal-scoring ability which has impressed us this season.

The amount of running and the ground he covers during a game has been equally as impressive.

John Egan - The centre-back, 23, is very calm and composed in possession of the ball. He was voted the club’s Player Of The Season last year and has already scored four goals this time around.

He is certainly one of the players to watch especially if we get a set piece as that is how most of our goals have been scored this term.

Where do you think the game will be won or lost?

Defence - Coventry and Gillingham are the leading goal-scorers in League One this season, I cannot see this match ending 0-0 and don't see both teams keeping a clean sheet either.

That means I think whoever is more solid defensively out of the two teams on the day will be the team who will pick up all three points on Saturday.

Prediction for the game?

2-2 - Both side's have certainly got the firepower in their sides to ensure that this match doesn’t end in a goal-less draw, but I cannot separate either team.

A draw probably reflects that there isn’t a lot between both teams, and also, regardless of the result, I think Coventry and Gillingham will both be in promotion contention at the end of the season.
